Flooded Tuesday

Toots and LT went to our house this morning. They were supposed to withdraw from BDO here inside the village but weren't able to because baha daw dun sa area na yun. Waist deep daw. I said, "Weh?!". Toots told me and Alvin to cover up so that we can check it out.

Big deal ito sa amin because we have been living in the same village for 30 years but never pa kami nakakita ng bonggang baha.

Nagoutfit of the day muna ako. 

Bakit?! Pagbaha hindi na pwede magoutfit of the day?! Lol!

Jacket: The North Face; Inner top: Mango razorback sando; Shorts: wag na, di naman kita; Slippers: Old Navy
 Off we went to check out the flooded area. That's the BDO bank on your right side.


The part near the guardhouse, knee deep. When you go further away, it becomes waist to chest deep. See those cars sa left? They're parked sa ramp na pataas. Inabot na din.

The family that you are seeing in that photo above ay yung suki ko na nagbebenta ng fruits and vegetables dun sa may church namin. Lagpas tao na daw dun sa may church. I asked why they were evacuating just now, they said wala pa naman daw tubig sa streets kaninang umaga. Buti na lang, I didn't attempt to go to work this morning. I was supposed to go to work kasi ManCom nga. Makakaalis pala ako pero I won't be able to go back home. That's the way in and out of the village eh.

The area we live in doesn't get flooded pero the areas surrounding it, ganito. Lalo na siguro the one going to the airport. Lagpas tao na din daw dun. Scary.

Pansinin talagang may agos yung baha di ba?!
 

Don't worry guys. I washed my feet with soap and water plus alcohol when I got home.

LT went with us too.



The creek inside our village is going to overflow anytime now if the rain will not stop.




The other parts of the village were flooded too.




Kaloka. 

Alvin's friend told us that it was worse during Ondoy. I wasn't able to see it because Alvin wouldn't allow me to go out of the house. I was pregnant that time. I was annoyed because I was being left out. Everybody was going out to see how flooded it was out there.

Anyways, I saw these really nice looking boots on our way home!


My friend in FB told me that that's a Joy Fish Commercial Grade Fishing/Rain Boots. Ang bonggels!! I want! It made me check out tuloy nice rain boots online =)

Here are the nice ones that I found:

  2. Yan din agad una kong chineck. Mcdo pa lng alam ko kasi I was looking for the nearest possible area where we can drop off donations, too. :) For sure, there are a lot more.

    Let us all offer a silent prayer to our countrymen who were affected by Bagyong Maring.

    PS.
    I love the last boots, too! Khit hindi baha isusuot ko yan. Hehehe.
